Abstract

This paper describes the influence of the change of land-use in Kanto Plane on urban climate in summer. Numerical simulations of urban climate from Aug. 10 to 11, 2007 were carried out by using WRF meteorological model under the conditions of Present, Edo-Era, and Future.From the computations, following conclusions are obtained. (1) The daytime temperature in Present Case is 2 to 3 °C higher than that of Edo-Era due to sea breeze and sensitive heat, and the nighttime temperature is also 4 °C higher than that of Edo-Era due to sensitive heat. (2) The daytime temperature in Future Case is 7 °C higher than that of Present Case in reclamation area due to reclamation land. However, the nighttime temperature in Future Case is a little bit lower than that of Present Case.
